L...Some libertarian teenager has discovered iSteve. Libertarianism is simply the pagan position that might makes right. Any restrictions on power are regarded as anathema. (Non-initiation of force is not worth discussing, since in practice it dissolves into jesuitical rationalizations.)<br /><br />While the Constitution is a negative document, addressed exclusively to the task of delimiting the power of government, that is not the whole story of the society. Private power centers are also restricted, by the common law. Constitutional restrictions on government permit a wide latitude of legal restrictions on private power (since private power is unaddressed in it); this is partly why the Bill of Rights was added by Jefferson and others, as a somewhat anti-democratic attempt to constrain this latitude.<br /><br />Private power, today, particularly as constituted in corporations, is far more totalitarian in structure than anything Western governments have had in the past, say, 60 years. Read Chomsky.<br /><br />None of these points will be appreciated by experience-poor and poorly-read Alissa Rosenbaum'ers. They are not on the same page.

James Baldwin is a literary giant who reads easily, communicating incredible depth in simple format. He wrote about the plight and agony of gays and blacks because that's what he was. He wrote of what was personal to him. His novels and essays aren't works on victimology, though. The agony Baldwin describes so beautifully comes not from some oppressor, but from the closest community, family, loved ones, and, most often, from within.

In libertarian theory the existence of people, like the existence of so many other things, is just assumed. In reality people only come into existence via sex, and good people only come into existence via sex within what is known as a "family'.<br /><br />There are zero known instances of a civilization based on men and women who did not have kids. This is not an optional extra - if there are no families with children then there ends up being nothing at all.<br /><br />This is why your beloved homosexuals are less valuable - they don't do the most necessary thing of all, which is reproduce.<br /><br />I don't think you are a bad person, but you are young and naive and it will take you a long time for you to shed the nonsense they hammered into you in school."<br /><br /> Yes, people come about through sex between a man and a woman - except in the case of artificial insemination, which you cynically left out -, but it is a huge jump in logic to assume that this fact makes a man and a woman raising a child a conditione sine qua non for the child to grow up into a successful and civilized human being. I want evidence for that. There are plenty people who were raised by single mothers or single fathers or gay couples and even in orphanages who turned out be very decent people as adults. Conversely, there are people who were raised in priviledges homes by a father and a mother who turnd out despicable. Ever heard of Nathan Leopold? Ever heard of Adolph Hitler?<br /><br /> As for gays being less valuable because they can't reproduce, so this is what makes a person valuable to you? So a menial laborer who is heterosexual has more "value" than, say, Alan Turing, the brilliant mathematician who was of paramount importance in the invention of the computer among many other achievements? People have INTRINSEC value. To me, the manual laborer and Alan Turing have equal value by virtue of being human, and not one has more value than the other because one is a brilliant scientist and the other a manual laborer or because one is heterosexual and the other homosexual. Heterosexuals have more value in reproducing the species, although this will change soon with reproductive technologies, but the "species" cannot experience pain or joy; the species is a non-entity. Removing the rights of real people and making them inferior citizens because favoring heterosexuals "might" assure the survival of the species more is a callous jump in deductive logic. There is no intrinsec value in the species making it into 1,000,000 AD to a greater degree than people who are alive today being allowed to be happy and enjoy their lives.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-58551524991416980792012-02-08T10:19:00.796-08:002012-02-08T10:19:00.796-08:00@Anonymous 5:18 PM
